No worries. Yes my interest was different. On a private local Galaxy, or a private Cloud one, sometimes a job seems to be going awry, taking forever etc. I was interested in the ability to suspend it, check what's wrong, maybe fix it, maybe resume or cancel the job.

This isn't (at least at first) Pause/Resume as you might be expecting - where you could manually pause a currently running job and continue it later. What we're doing at least in the first pass is using 'Paused' as an internal state that jobs only go into in two scenarios:

1) User quota is full - all jobs waiting to run will be paused instead of waiting in the queue forever. After clearing their quota, paused jobs can be resumed.
2) A parent job (say, in a workflow) fails, then dependent jobs will be paused instead of having the cascaded error. You'll be able to rerun the failed parent and (if it succeeds) have paused jobs resume, instead of having to re-queue everything all over again. This isn't quite fully implemented yet, but will be finished in the near future.

Other than being able to effectively resume workflows and potentially do other things with this framework, the changes should also reduce the load on Galaxy's job running system.
